The King Of Torts

di John Grisham (Autore)

Cornerstone Digital, 2010

Clay Carter has been working in The Office of the Public Defender for too long and dreams of better things. When he reluctantly takes the case of a young man charged with a random street killing, he assumes it is just another of the many senseless murders that hit Washington D.C. every week. But as he digs deeper, Clay stumbles upon a conspiracy too horrifying to believe. A pharmaceutical giant has been secretly and illegally testing a new drug on addicts - one that helps stop addiction, but which drives them to random acts of violence. Overnight, Clay becomes a celebrity among lawyers and a national media figure. But as the financial stakes rise, so does the danger. . . _______________________________________ 'A master at the art of deft characterisation and the skilful delivery of hair-raising crescendos' Irish Independent 'John Grisham is the master of legal fiction' Jodi Picoult 'The best thriller writer alive!!'
